This Fireside Chat brings together professionals from different areas of the hip-hop music scene and aims to facilitate a conversation that will explore how their multicultural backgrounds have influenced their artistic choices, reshaped their approach to their respective crafts, and enhanced the larger hip-hop landscape as a whole. These creatives, either people of color or with immigrant backgrounds, will reflect on growing up in societies where they often felt like outsiders. Through hip-hop – a genre known for its raw vulnerability and realness – they channel their stories, addressing racism, belonging, and the challenges of being part of a cultural minority. This discussion will give attendees a fresh perspective on these important issues by examining them through the lens of music, creativity, and personal expression.
